WEBVTT - Hour 2 - Pat Forde (06-30-20) 0:00:00.680 --> 0:00:03.520 You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 0:00:03.560 --> 0:00:06.720 Sports Radio hour or two on this Tuesday, Dan and 0:00:06.760 --> 0:00:09.479 the Dan Nets, Dan Patrick's Show. Glad to have you 0:00:09.560 --> 0:00:12.480 on board. If you're listening, you're watching on YouTube dot 0:00:12.480 --> 0:00:16.760 com slash the Dan Patrick's Show, you're tweeting, emailing, say 0:00:16.760 --> 0:00:19.680 good morning to chat and row boys are here ready 0:00:19.680 --> 0:00:23.120 to go? Did we settle on a poll question? Mclovin, 0:00:23.160 --> 0:00:24.720 I put up hour one, which sport is in the 0:00:24.720 --> 0:00:28.720 best shape right now? NFL, NBA or MLB sixty NFL, 0:00:28.880 --> 0:00:32.880 then NBA second and then MLBA distant third. All right, 0:00:33.840 --> 0:00:36.360 it's you know, it's fluid, it's it feels like it's 0:00:36.400 --> 0:00:39.400 every day where there's something else that comes up, there's 0:00:39.440 --> 0:00:42.720 progress that's made, two steps forward, two steps back. I mean, 0:00:42.840 --> 0:00:45.600 look at the Brooklyn Nets. You don't have Durant, you 0:00:45.640 --> 0:00:49.000 don't have Kyrie. You've got a couple other players. DeAndre 0:00:49.200 --> 0:00:50.760 Jordan's not going to go. You've got a couple of 0:00:50.840 --> 0:00:55.560 players who've tested positive yesterday. And I wonder if they're 0:00:55.600 --> 0:00:58.640 going to be able to put together a roster to 0:00:58.800 --> 0:01:02.480 go to Orlando. And I don't know if the commissioner 0:01:02.480 --> 0:01:04.759 would step in and say you know what. On second thought, 0:01:04.880 --> 0:01:11.319 the Wizards get to go because as Kyrie been cleared medically. 0:01:11.520 --> 0:01:15.319 I know nothing about Kyrie Irving's health status. I know 0:01:15.440 --> 0:01:19.800 Kevin Durant is coming back from the Achilles surgery. Has 0:01:19.840 --> 0:01:23.360 he been cleared medically. They just decided that he shouldn't 0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:26.200 be doing anything because that's what it feels like, and 0:01:26.240 --> 0:01:29.080 I think that's the prudent move. I don't want Kevin 0:01:29.120 --> 0:01:32.640 Durant to come back for a two month period or 0:01:32.680 --> 0:01:35.080 you know, six week period and try to do too much. 0:01:35.160 --> 0:01:38.200 I would want to load management Kevin Durant next year. 0:01:38.840 --> 0:01:42.039 I would take as many safety precautions as I could. 0:01:42.360 --> 0:01:46.240 Kyrie I don't even know what he what his injury is. 0:01:46.240 --> 0:01:50.400 Is it his knee. It's been so long ago, I've 0:01:50.640 --> 0:01:53.680 forgotten all about it. Yeah, Paul Kyrie Iring's shoulder surgery 0:01:54.320 --> 0:01:56.960 was four to six weeks, so they said it would 0:01:56.960 --> 0:01:59.440 be that timeline equal to he could be back in June. 0:01:59.680 --> 0:02:02.520 Kevin Durant was medically cleared at the end of March, 0:02:02.840 --> 0:02:06.000 according to the New York Post. Now medically cleared to 0:02:06.240 --> 0:02:09.400 start working out right, But that's two months ago. He 0:02:09.440 --> 0:02:12.960 was medically clear. Yeah, I'm sorry three months ago. Yeah, 0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:15.360 I just don't see the upside to bring him back 0:02:15.400 --> 0:02:18.120 and have him play any chance though that the Nets 0:02:18.160 --> 0:02:20.320 and Durant and Kyrie look at us and say, hey, 0:02:20.360 --> 0:02:23.959 we have there's no home court advantage. There's this weird 0:02:24.240 --> 0:02:27.640 tournament down in Orlando. This evens the playing field a 0:02:27.639 --> 0:02:30.040 bit for us to advance on. Why not take a 0:02:30.080 --> 0:02:34.000 shot because you got DeAndre Jordan, Ounce Spencer, did Wittie 0:02:34.040 --> 0:02:37.280 just tested positive? You had Wilson Chandler who's not going 0:02:37.320 --> 0:02:39.760 to go. You don't even know if Kyrie is going 0:02:39.840 --> 0:02:42.840 to play. I can't put Durant in that situation. I 0:02:42.919 --> 0:02:46.360 just saw this from our friend Chris Haynes. Kevin Durant, 0:02:46.400 --> 0:02:49.679 who is continuing his rehab, will not accompany the team 0:02:49.680 --> 0:02:54.680 to Orlando for the season resumption, League sources tell Yahoo Sports. 0:02:55.040 --> 0:02:57.720 Not surprised. Yeah, mclovin, Yeah, I got bad news on 0:02:57.760 --> 0:03:00.560 the Wizards. They're six games back of the Nets with 0:03:00.720 --> 0:03:03.760 eight games to play. They ain't catching the Nets. Oh, 0:03:03.840 --> 0:03:06.840 I know they're not. But I'm saying, can Brooklyn actually 0:03:06.960 --> 0:03:10.079 field a team to go to Orlando? What happens if 0:03:10.320 --> 0:03:13.679 somebody else test positive on that team? I mean, is 0:03:13.720 --> 0:03:16.360 a team that half G League guys, any worse than 0:03:16.400 --> 0:03:20.840 the current Washington Wizards? Wow? Come on, Oh, who's gonna wait? 0:03:21.160 --> 0:03:27.519 Are we're afraid of Wizards? Wizards? You guys ever met 0:03:27.520 --> 0:03:32.480 a Wizard's dad? I'm sorry Redskins fans. We know some 0:03:32.600 --> 0:03:34.880 National fans out, but no one's ever met a Wizard here. 0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:37.360 You can't imagine anyone saying I grew up a diehard 0:03:37.400 --> 0:03:40.680 Wizards fan. Yeah, doesn't exist. How long had the Wizards 0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:42.600 been the Wizards? Because I remember when they were the 0:03:42.600 --> 0:03:46.480 Boltimore Bullets and they were a great team, but then 0:03:46.520 --> 0:03:50.480 they became the Wizards. Yes, they've been the Wizards. Why 0:03:50.520 --> 0:03:52.480 would you think if you could guess the year they 0:03:52.760 --> 0:03:54.640 went from Bullets to Wizards top of your head. Well, 0:03:54.680 --> 0:03:57.480 Abe Poland was the owner of the team, I think 0:03:57.480 --> 0:04:04.400 at the time, And I'm gonna get us twenty five 0:04:04.480 --> 0:04:07.280 years pretty close, Dan, twenty three years ago, ninety seven, 0:04:07.400 --> 0:04:11.720 ninety eight seasons your Wizards came into existence. Yeah, that 0:04:11.800 --> 0:04:14.760 was the first where of politically correctness. When it comes 0:04:14.760 --> 0:04:17.920 to team names, it feels like because they were the Bullets, 0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:21.320 there were some college teams like Marquette and Saint John's 0:04:21.320 --> 0:04:22.760 and others changed. I don't know when they but I 0:04:22.800 --> 0:04:26.960 don't know when Saint John's went from the Redman and 0:04:27.360 --> 0:04:30.880 Marquette changed as well. I think it was a little 0:04:30.920 --> 0:04:33.640 earlier because Dartmouth changed in the late eighties from the 0:04:33.680 --> 0:04:36.120 Indians to the Big Green. Okay, there was a movement, 0:04:36.160 --> 0:04:38.559 it was in the early nineties to change those names, 0:04:38.839 --> 0:04:42.320 but nobody noticed because it was Dartmouth. They all did. 0:04:42.320 --> 0:04:44.560 I think that Syracuse George member right around like it 0:04:44.880 --> 0:04:50.680 all happened, right, yeah, okay, except it didn't happen in Washington. 0:04:52.040 --> 0:04:55.800 I know it didn't, and it's not gonna happen anytime 0:04:55.839 --> 0:04:58.240 soon either. Yeah, Paul, you saw what happened last week. 0:04:58.360 --> 0:05:01.560 The Redskins took down a statue one of their former owners. 0:05:01.880 --> 0:05:04.359 That's you could tell. That's such a pacification move to 0:05:04.440 --> 0:05:06.640 try to Yeah, can we change the topic. We'll take 0:05:06.640 --> 0:05:09.120 down this statue. Can you all move along so we 0:05:09.120 --> 0:05:10.800 don't have to address our team name. It's like, how 0:05:10.839 --> 0:05:12.880 much can we do? That's just enough so we don't 0:05:12.920 --> 0:05:16.680 have to change our nickname? Right all right? Age seven 0:05:16.760 --> 0:05:19.160 seven three DP show email I address DP of Dan 0:05:19.200 --> 0:05:21.920 Patrick Dodge Coom Twitter handle at DP show. Say good 0:05:21.920 --> 0:05:24.280 morning to Doug in Florida. Hi, Doug, what's on your 0:05:24.279 --> 0:05:30.279 mind today? A DP five eleven one seventy. I wanted 0:05:30.360 --> 0:05:33.599 to share with you that McLevin could not be further 0:05:33.800 --> 0:05:35.960 from the truth or understanding and needs some pay attention 0:05:36.000 --> 0:05:39.440 to the master. By spring, we would be willing to 0:05:39.480 --> 0:05:43.760 watch cockroaches play football mccause of the biochemistry of the 0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:50.040 COVID nineteen virus, NBA bubble, NFL NCUBA. Although, guys, it's 0:05:50.080 --> 0:05:53.680 going to be a disaster, but you just can't control 0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:55.400 the thing. It's got to play a stuff out, or 0:05:55.440 --> 0:05:58.200 we've got to have a vaccine or a cure. But yeah, 0:05:58.279 --> 0:06:02.800 mcglevin to come spring if we're If IVY League football 0:06:02.920 --> 0:06:06.040 does not have the highest ratings, then I'll take you 0:06:06.080 --> 0:06:10.160 seiling for the weekend. My friend come down before it there. 0:06:10.640 --> 0:06:12.280 That's kind of a worst case. He's saying that there's 0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:14.800 gonna be no sports until that, like the super Bowl 0:06:14.760 --> 0:06:18.159 won't well, there won't be any football after the super Bowl, 0:06:18.320 --> 0:06:21.279 and you would plug into that spring football XP foul 0:06:21.760 --> 0:06:25.320 window that everybody was going crazy over. Now, granted you 0:06:25.320 --> 0:06:28.919 know that those numbers dissipated, but this is just a 0:06:29.000 --> 0:06:31.279 proposal from the IVY League, and we asked to have 0:06:31.360 --> 0:06:33.800 somebody on from the IVY League. Fritzie, Can I read 0:06:33.800 --> 0:06:37.160 a portion of what they sent to us? Sure? Um, 0:06:37.920 --> 0:06:41.640 not going to be publicly commenting outside the statement. Therefore, 0:06:41.760 --> 0:06:46.120 we respectfully cannot have Is this the commissioner of the 0:06:46.120 --> 0:06:48.200 IVY League on the show this morning? Yeah? Well look 0:06:48.200 --> 0:06:51.360 at that, the executive director, Robin Horizon. Okay, but they're 0:06:51.400 --> 0:06:54.800 just talking about spring football. That's all just the possibility 0:06:54.800 --> 0:06:56.839 of waiting to the spring. And it's the IVY League. 0:06:57.320 --> 0:07:02.680 Saint John's changed its nickname nineteen ninety four, so twenty 0:07:02.680 --> 0:07:08.200 six years ago. Uh, Louis Carnesecco was now is he 0:07:08.320 --> 0:07:11.920 still the head coach? Then? I know he made the announcement, 0:07:12.000 --> 0:07:15.560 but he's alive. I saw him in a local news 0:07:15.560 --> 0:07:19.440 interview last month doing great. The Redman will now be 0:07:19.560 --> 0:07:26.520 known as the Red Storm. And I don't even remember 0:07:26.600 --> 0:07:33.160 Marquette changing its name with Warriors, yeah years ago. Yeah, 0:07:33.520 --> 0:07:37.480 and Hawaii do that with the Rainbow Rainbows with Rainbow Warriors. Yeah. 0:07:37.520 --> 0:07:39.800 I got Syracuse in two thousand and four from the 0:07:39.840 --> 0:07:45.360 Orange Men to the Orange O. Uh, Jeff and Detroit, Hi, Jeff, 0:07:45.360 --> 0:07:48.320 what do you have for me today? What up though? 0:07:48.440 --> 0:07:50.760 One time for my buds and girls and chat row 0:07:50.880 --> 0:07:57.840 damn yahn the other day. Listen, are you Flanny man? Listen? 0:07:58.320 --> 0:08:01.800 As far as golfsk you got Lebron and you got time. 0:08:02.120 --> 0:08:04.280 Do you ever remember a time where it was two 0:08:04.360 --> 0:08:07.520 goats at the same time with such jevity? I thought 0:08:07.520 --> 0:08:10.160 about it when both of these guys got in the leagues. 0:08:10.600 --> 0:08:12.520 I was in my twenties, We're getting ready to have 0:08:12.520 --> 0:08:16.160 a fiftieth birthday, and they're still fighting for championships to 0:08:16.320 --> 0:08:20.080 this day. Do you ever remember two athletes with such 0:08:20.160 --> 0:08:24.680 great resumes fighting for championships this right in their careers. Well, 0:08:24.720 --> 0:08:28.160 Tom's the goat, but Lebron's not the goat. He's in 0:08:28.200 --> 0:08:38.280 the conversation. So I think, yeah, Jeff, Well what I 0:08:38.400 --> 0:08:42.199 think him being in so many different championships, come running 0:08:42.200 --> 0:08:45.760 to pisted us to the championship, him taking what was 0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:48.199 the Miami, and if he does it with the Lakers, 0:08:48.280 --> 0:08:50.439 he's definitely going to be in the question. I mean 0:08:50.480 --> 0:08:53.679 in a conversation. I know he's in the conversation, it's 0:08:53.679 --> 0:08:56.720 just people won't allow him in the conversation. Thank you, Jeff, 0:08:56.720 --> 0:09:00.719 because of their memories with Jordan and certainly with documentary 0:09:00.760 --> 0:09:03.520 that came out that just reinforced you know how people 0:09:03.760 --> 0:09:08.640 thought about Mike. But Lebron's in the conversation. But I 0:09:08.679 --> 0:09:12.040 don't think he'll ever be the goat. He'd have to 0:09:12.040 --> 0:09:15.560 win at least two more titles, and then you could 0:09:15.559 --> 0:09:17.200 have And I don't even want to get into this 0:09:17.240 --> 0:09:19.960 topic because it's silly. You know, battle lines are drawn. 0:09:20.160 --> 0:09:23.280 You either believe it or not. You you know, nobody's 0:09:23.320 --> 0:09:28.120 gonna take Michael off the pedestal. I entertain it. But 0:09:28.160 --> 0:09:31.880 they're different basketball players. The only person who's close to 0:09:32.000 --> 0:09:35.839 Michael Jordan, in my opinion, is Kobe. Because Kobe tried 0:09:35.880 --> 0:09:41.200 to be Mike. Lebron can't be Mike. He's different, and 0:09:41.280 --> 0:09:46.440 therefore I don't think he'll be. There's that apples and oranges. 0:09:46.480 --> 0:09:49.040 You're trying to compare the two, but you can't. You 0:09:49.679 --> 0:09:52.760 just get they're different players, different people, different errors. Yampoint. 0:09:52.840 --> 0:09:54.720 One thing that's interesting. I just looked at the timeline. 0:09:55.080 --> 0:09:57.400 Tom Brady really became a household name when he won 0:09:57.440 --> 0:10:01.200 the Super Bowl in January of two two correct, yeah, 0:10:01.920 --> 0:10:04.400 four weeks later. Lebron James on the cover supports ILLUSTRAI 0:10:04.400 --> 0:10:06.480 as a high school athlete. So Tom Brady was not 0:10:06.559 --> 0:10:08.280 that well known when he got handed the rains that 0:10:08.360 --> 0:10:10.959 season in OH one, and then he became household name 0:10:11.480 --> 0:10:15.160 January of O two. Lebron James basically became a household 0:10:15.200 --> 0:10:17.160 name before he got drafted a year and a half 0:10:17.240 --> 0:10:20.040 later by being on SI cover three weeks after Brady 0:10:20.080 --> 0:10:22.000 wins the Super Bowl. So those guys have been household 0:10:22.080 --> 0:10:25.680 names since then. Yes, I think it was still kind 0:10:25.679 --> 0:10:28.160 of controversial that they didn't bring Bledsoe back once he 0:10:28.200 --> 0:10:30.559 got healthy, that they left Brady in. I mean, that's yeah, 0:10:30.600 --> 0:10:33.000 it says a lot about has his star power. Then well, 0:10:33.000 --> 0:10:35.120 if you go back and listen to that final drive 0:10:35.160 --> 0:10:39.800 with John Madden, John Madden is questioning the coaching philosophy 0:10:40.000 --> 0:10:43.240 of or decision of Bill Belichick to let Brady throw 0:10:43.240 --> 0:10:45.679 the ball down the field because he thought that they 0:10:45.720 --> 0:10:48.040 were not going to try to get in, you know, 0:10:48.160 --> 0:10:50.000 fuel goal range, that you were going to play for 0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:54.640 overtime because we weren't sure about Tom Brady and Brady's 0:10:54.720 --> 0:10:57.000 numbers were kind of pedestrian. I think in that first 0:10:57.000 --> 0:11:01.160 Super Bowl that was basically won by the defense, their 0:11:01.240 --> 0:11:05.520 strategy against Marshall Falk. But you know Brady Brady wasn't 0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:07.360 one that you know, you looked at him and you went, 0:11:07.440 --> 0:11:10.560 that's greatness. I remember after that Super Bowl, so that 0:11:10.640 --> 0:11:15.040 next day and you know, we're just going is is 0:11:15.080 --> 0:11:19.080 he like, is he gonna be great? I didn't know 0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:22.080 at the time. I thought, you know, boy, that's a 0:11:22.120 --> 0:11:25.520 great story. And you know the fact that Bledsoe helped them, 0:11:25.559 --> 0:11:28.960 I think against Pittsburgh in the playoffs. But I looked 0:11:29.000 --> 0:11:30.600 at Brady and I went, I don't know if he 0:11:30.640 --> 0:11:34.280 does anything great, but he didn't get flustered in the 0:11:34.320 --> 0:11:36.680 biggest moment of his young career. And I thought, okay, 0:11:36.720 --> 0:11:38.920 something to be said. There's no way. At the time, 0:11:38.960 --> 0:11:41.640 I went, man, that guy is destined for greatness. Yeah, poem. 0:11:41.679 --> 0:11:43.040 And if you watch, I watched the end of that 0:11:43.040 --> 0:11:44.800 Super Bowl, the fourth quarter a couple of weeks ago, 0:11:45.040 --> 0:11:47.240 and John Madden's calling in and when they get the 0:11:47.240 --> 0:11:49.280 ball back, like, well, you know you got a young 0:11:49.360 --> 0:11:51.760 quarterback in there, just run a few plays and play 0:11:51.800 --> 0:11:56.160 for overtime. Yeah they didn't. Yeah, so here's John Madden 0:11:56.280 --> 0:11:59.000 saying that. And then they were aggressive and then Vinitary 0:11:59.080 --> 0:12:02.839 kicks the field goal but there's no way I figured 0:12:02.960 --> 0:12:05.880 Lebron was going to be something. Did I think he 0:12:05.960 --> 0:12:12.080 was going to be this? Probably not, But knowing everything 0:12:12.080 --> 0:12:14.520 about Lebron James and how he played the game, having 0:12:14.559 --> 0:12:17.240 seen one basketball game that he played in, So you 0:12:17.280 --> 0:12:19.640 have a guy who's six to eight by far, the 0:12:19.640 --> 0:12:23.000 biggest guy on the floor, and he's the best passer 0:12:23.080 --> 0:12:27.280 on the floor. And I remember coming away going, it's 0:12:27.400 --> 0:12:32.680 unbelievable how unselfish he is, and he wanted to make 0:12:32.760 --> 0:12:37.280 others better, and you know, Jordan's not that kind of guy. 0:12:38.280 --> 0:12:40.560 Jordan's philosophy was, why do I throw it to you? 0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:44.120 Even if I'm double covered, I'm probably I got a 0:12:44.160 --> 0:12:46.440 better chance of scoring than you do if you're wide open. 0:12:47.080 --> 0:12:49.920 Lebron would always find the open man. And you had 0:12:49.960 --> 0:12:52.199 these guys who look like they're about five to nine 0:12:52.320 --> 0:12:56.280 on the team, and he would make great passes even 0:12:56.320 --> 0:12:59.440 back then. All Right, so we got a pull question 0:12:59.559 --> 0:13:01.840 here up Paul and ohio joints is Paul? What's on 0:13:01.880 --> 0:13:06.560 your mind? Hey Dan, what's going on? Oh? You tell me, Paul, 0:13:06.600 --> 0:13:09.520 what's on your mind? Well? Physical I went to physical 0:13:09.559 --> 0:13:13.040 therapist yesterday, Dan, and your name popped up. I was 0:13:13.080 --> 0:13:16.800 showing her things Cooke on my tragger and there was 0:13:16.840 --> 0:13:18.720 a little picture of you, and she goes, is that 0:13:18.840 --> 0:13:22.520 Dan Patrick? And I said, yeah, anyway, I showed her 0:13:22.559 --> 0:13:25.199 a little video of my Walter Midi Mollet with a 0:13:25.320 --> 0:13:29.320 jerky and she goes, I loved Dan Patrick. Oh my god, 0:13:29.520 --> 0:13:32.600 He's one of my favorites. So I thought I'd pass 0:13:32.679 --> 0:13:36.240 it along to you and well you did anybody have 0:13:36.280 --> 0:13:39.200 any more comments about the keeople of Oberman pain That 0:13:39.400 --> 0:13:42.800 kind of really concerned me. What do you mean, I 0:13:42.880 --> 0:13:48.240 mean the World Series? Yeah? Yeah, Buster Only from the 0:13:48.280 --> 0:13:50.640 Mothership has said the same thing. Thank you, Paul. Thanks 0:13:50.880 --> 0:13:59.000 that update. Our female population is skyrocketing huge and I 0:13:59.080 --> 0:14:01.800 think it's three now that we have at least three 0:14:01.800 --> 0:14:06.360 on record. Yeah, Oberman said zero percent chance of the 0:14:06.400 --> 0:14:10.480 World Series. Buster Only said the same thing. I'm a 0:14:10.480 --> 0:14:15.120 little more optimistic than that. I'm going to be a 0:14:15.120 --> 0:14:18.640 little bit more than zero percent that the World Series 0:14:18.720 --> 0:14:22.240 won't happen. Here, by the way, talking about high school athletes, 0:14:22.560 --> 0:14:25.440 Lebron James on the cover Sports Illustrated at seventeen, Bryce 0:14:25.480 --> 0:14:28.080 Harper on the cover at sixteen, and there are a 0:14:28.120 --> 0:14:31.160 few others there. I don't know if you know who 0:14:31.240 --> 0:14:35.800 Imani Bates is, because he's a big deal. He just 0:14:35.840 --> 0:14:39.560 committed to Michigan State yesterday and he's been on the 0:14:39.640 --> 0:14:43.200 radar of serious basketball fans for a while. Last year 0:14:43.240 --> 0:14:46.600 he became the first sophomore ever to be the National 0:14:46.720 --> 0:14:48.840 Player of the Year, Gatorade National Player of the Year, 0:14:50.200 --> 0:14:52.520 and you have a lot of scouts saying he might 0:14:52.640 --> 0:14:56.280 be the best high school prospect since Lebron James. Now, 0:14:56.480 --> 0:14:59.360 the problem is all this attention actually makes the commitment 0:14:59.400 --> 0:15:02.400 to Michigan State, and we're precarious by twenty twenty two, 0:15:02.800 --> 0:15:05.240 high school players should be able to go directly to 0:15:05.280 --> 0:15:09.360 the NBA. I'm gonna guess Bates will go right to 0:15:09.440 --> 0:15:13.480 the NBA. I'm wondering, and I don't know if he 0:15:13.520 --> 0:15:16.920 can do this or not, And maybe somebody who is 0:15:16.960 --> 0:15:21.200 listening can help us. I'm gonna guess Bates can get 0:15:21.280 --> 0:15:29.280 himself a shoe deal individually right now, Adidas, Nike. If 0:15:29.280 --> 0:15:32.200 he's not going to play college basketball, I don't know 0:15:32.320 --> 0:15:35.240 if you're ineligible in high school, PAULI if you could 0:15:35.320 --> 0:15:40.080 check that, But I mean, he's got the hype that 0:15:40.720 --> 0:15:43.239 goes along with this. But you're talking about a prospect 0:15:43.280 --> 0:15:47.720 that could be the next Lebron James, the next Lebron 0:15:47.840 --> 0:15:50.640 James with that much publicity going into the NBA. Yeah point. 0:15:50.680 --> 0:15:54.320 Don't you think that his team and his family announce 0:15:54.440 --> 0:15:58.680 this declaration on national TV ESPN yesterday almost when they 0:15:58.680 --> 0:16:01.280 see what Lebron is doing, get famous before you're in 0:16:01.280 --> 0:16:03.640 the league, have your marketing deals now, start working on 0:16:03.720 --> 0:16:06.040 them now. So when he does go in NBA drafts 0:16:06.080 --> 0:16:08.600 in two years, he's by far the number one pick, 0:16:08.640 --> 0:16:11.640 but also a household name. Can he have a shoe deal? 0:16:12.840 --> 0:16:17.320 Would that make him ineligible to play high school basketball? Yeah, McLevin, 0:16:17.480 --> 0:16:19.760 But it'd make him ineligible for college. Well he's not 0:16:19.800 --> 0:16:22.000 going to college, Okay, So I mean, if you know 0:16:22.160 --> 0:16:26.000 you're not going to college, But did we know? For like, 0:16:26.120 --> 0:16:28.360 Zion probably could have signed a shoe deal in high school, 0:16:28.360 --> 0:16:30.600 but he knew he had to go to college. This 0:16:30.880 --> 0:16:34.040 kid is This kid is considered a better prospect than 0:16:34.160 --> 0:16:39.320 Zion Williamson. He's a better basketball player by his sophomore 0:16:39.400 --> 0:16:42.760 year than Zion Williamson. Zion Williamson was a just you know, 0:16:42.800 --> 0:16:46.360 he's a spectacular athlete. This by all accounts, I Monti 0:16:46.440 --> 0:16:49.280 Bates is a great basketball player. I've been hearing about 0:16:49.320 --> 0:16:52.000 him since eighth grade, and I think at the time 0:16:52.040 --> 0:16:54.640 people were talking about in eighth grade he was the 0:16:54.640 --> 0:16:58.320 best player in the state of Michigan. But this is 0:16:58.680 --> 0:17:02.040 this helps Michigan stay from the standpoint of he may 0:17:02.080 --> 0:17:04.879 not go there, but I think him announcing that he 0:17:05.080 --> 0:17:09.000 trusted tom Izzo and that other recruits might look at 0:17:09.000 --> 0:17:12.520 this and say, let me give Michigan State another look. 0:17:12.960 --> 0:17:15.000 But I don't think he's going to play at Michigan State. 0:17:15.520 --> 0:17:19.359 But I'm curious. You know, maybe Pat Forty, you know, Fritzie, 0:17:19.400 --> 0:17:21.480 give forty a heads up he's going to join us? Here? 0:17:21.800 --> 0:17:26.119 Can you? Could he have a shoe deal, you know 0:17:26.200 --> 0:17:28.920 above board where everybody knows you have a shoe deal, 0:17:29.400 --> 0:17:32.600 Because if I'm Nike or Adidas and I can lock 0:17:32.680 --> 0:17:38.040 him in now, absolutely, because we saw what Zions signed 0:17:38.040 --> 0:17:40.680 for then he signed a ninety million dollars shoe deal. 0:17:41.920 --> 0:17:47.119 And if you can get this kid now, I would 0:17:48.040 --> 0:17:51.879 lock him up absolutely. All right? Eight seven seven three 0:17:51.920 --> 0:17:54.959 D P show email address DP at dan Patrick dot com. 0:17:55.720 --> 0:17:58.639 We got our poll question correct, Well, we can keep 0:17:58.720 --> 0:18:01.919 up that multiple spot one. We could go back to cam. 0:18:02.200 --> 0:18:04.480 We could Uh, well, what do you want to ask 0:18:04.520 --> 0:18:07.120 with Cam Well, Paul, he was asking whether it be 0:18:07.640 --> 0:18:11.120 a you know, a pocket quarterback or a running quarterback. Plack. 0:18:11.119 --> 0:18:13.440 It can't be a pocket quarter It's not even in 0:18:13.640 --> 0:18:17.119 play because you know these quarterbacks play that way that 0:18:17.280 --> 0:18:19.399 you can try to One of the guys who got 0:18:19.480 --> 0:18:23.399 deep program was Steve Young. Steve Young would have his 0:18:23.480 --> 0:18:26.320 one read and then he would go and he had 0:18:26.320 --> 0:18:28.679 to go through his progressions. And this is according to 0:18:28.880 --> 0:18:30.720 you know, somebody on the coaching staff with the Niners 0:18:30.760 --> 0:18:34.679 who said we had to deprogram him from the USFL 0:18:34.800 --> 0:18:37.280 days to when he was in Tampa. You know, he 0:18:37.359 --> 0:18:40.440 ran because you know, he's trying to survive. And he 0:18:40.520 --> 0:18:43.520 got to San Francisco and their offense, you know, the 0:18:43.560 --> 0:18:48.399 West Coast offense. Montana never ran. It was just quick 0:18:48.480 --> 0:18:52.600 passes there, Rice and Taylor, Dwight Clark. And they had 0:18:52.640 --> 0:18:56.919 to deep program Steve and say you got progressions to 0:18:56.960 --> 0:19:00.320 make and then if you have to run, you can on. Yeah, 0:19:00.440 --> 0:19:03.400 McLevin does that even the slow quarterbacks to this run 0:19:03.520 --> 0:19:05.639 pass option like it was. It isn't. Nick Foles an 0:19:05.720 --> 0:19:08.560 RPOs specialist, and he's as slow as anybody in the world. 0:19:09.800 --> 0:19:11.920 I don't He's an RPO special. Yeah, this isn't that 0:19:12.000 --> 0:19:13.879 what the Eagles screwed up the Patriots with in the 0:19:13.880 --> 0:19:16.159 Super Bowl. But they kept rolling him right in RPO 0:19:16.280 --> 0:19:18.639 ing and he never ran. He always threw. But I 0:19:18.640 --> 0:19:20.919 feel like even Brady was running an RPO. I don't know. 0:19:21.880 --> 0:19:24.359 I feel like RPO is the standard play now in 0:19:24.400 --> 0:19:26.399 the NFL, and I could be wrong. I'll ask an 0:19:26.440 --> 0:19:29.680 expert here, but it feels like that. But but I'm 0:19:29.680 --> 0:19:33.120 not quite sure. I like, do we look at Nick Foles? 0:19:33.960 --> 0:19:36.200 I mean, it always amazed me that the Patriots gave 0:19:36.240 --> 0:19:38.159 Foles respect as if he was going to run the 0:19:38.160 --> 0:19:40.720 football in the Super Bowl, and I went he ain't running, 0:19:42.520 --> 0:19:44.600 and he didn't. He would just they'd be like, Oh, 0:19:44.600 --> 0:19:47.359 We're gonna be cautious here now, I'm gonna be back, 0:19:47.560 --> 0:19:50.399 you know, waiting for a pound. Yeah, I McLevin. Do 0:19:50.440 --> 0:19:52.560 you think ten years ago the Ravens would have told 0:19:52.600 --> 0:19:55.720 Lamar Jackson to run less? As have attitude changed in 0:19:55.720 --> 0:20:01.600 the NFL slowly, But it feels like you have to 0:20:01.680 --> 0:20:05.400 change because you're seeing the type of quarterbacks who are 0:20:05.400 --> 0:20:09.280 coming in now that you know you can't be archaic. 0:20:09.440 --> 0:20:12.760 It can't be Caveman football here. And that's why you're seeing. 0:20:13.040 --> 0:20:16.520 You know, Belichick has loved Cam Newton. He thought about 0:20:16.600 --> 0:20:21.400 Johnny Manziel, He thought about Baker Mayfield. You're you're looking, 0:20:21.480 --> 0:20:23.480 you have to look at this to stay relevant. I 0:20:23.520 --> 0:20:26.720 think you can't be no where our quarterback sits in 0:20:26.760 --> 0:20:29.439 the pocket there. I mean the Saints have that because 0:20:29.480 --> 0:20:33.720 that's who Drew Brees is. He can't run Philip Rivers 0:20:33.800 --> 0:20:39.159 can't run Ben can't run. Those quarterbacks, those are dinosaurs. 0:20:39.200 --> 0:20:42.400 Brady can't run. All of these other quarterbacks coming in, 0:20:42.800 --> 0:20:46.000 you're athletes. Yeah. Point. If you look at Lamar Jackson, 0:20:46.119 --> 0:20:49.040 I think he was drafted in twenty eighteen, seventeen, ten 0:20:49.119 --> 0:20:52.120 years earlier, he would have been Pat White at West Virginia, 0:20:52.280 --> 0:20:55.920 an unbelievable run and shoot quarterback. And Pat White was fantastic. 0:20:55.920 --> 0:20:58.840 He barely glimbed on. Did he barely get the Dolphins? Yeah, 0:20:58.840 --> 0:21:01.080 and he was a phil guy. I thought he was 0:21:01.160 --> 0:21:03.240 going to be a good NFL quarterback at Pat White, 0:21:03.240 --> 0:21:06.080 we're coming out now, he'd be the top thirty pick. Yes, 0:21:06.240 --> 0:21:09.800 we can get a really significantly vicious concussion early in 0:21:09.840 --> 0:21:11.960 his career. Well, he's also a baseball guy I think 0:21:11.960 --> 0:21:14.679 in the Kansas City Royals in the second round. Yeah. 0:21:14.480 --> 0:21:17.120 I liked him. Yeah, I thought he was really good. 0:21:17.200 --> 0:21:19.600 He got one of the worst concussions and that slowed 0:21:19.680 --> 0:21:22.239 him down big time. Oh Dolphin, I'll check on that. 0:21:22.680 --> 0:21:24.960 All right, Phone calls are welcome. We'll settle on a 0:21:25.000 --> 0:21:31.400 pull question. Guy Fieri Flavortown. He's from Columbus, Ohio. They've 0:21:31.400 --> 0:21:34.639 already I think, taken down Christopher Columbus's monument there, and 0:21:34.840 --> 0:21:37.800 now you have a petition signed by thousands of people 0:21:37.840 --> 0:21:43.600 to rename Columbus Flavortown. Guy Fieri will join us? Is 0:21:43.640 --> 0:21:46.840 that something Guy would want because he's always taken a 0:21:46.880 --> 0:21:50.120 trip to Flavortown and that's usually wherever Guy goes, he's 0:21:50.119 --> 0:21:54.159 going to Flavortown. Yeah, the mayor of Flavortown. So I 0:21:54.240 --> 0:21:57.480 want to meet the person who started all that. Is 0:21:57.520 --> 0:21:59.399 there a deputy mayor? Do they have like a streets 0:21:59.400 --> 0:22:03.280 and water to But when you so who comes up 0:22:03.280 --> 0:22:05.560 with the idea and says we're going to get thousands 0:22:05.560 --> 0:22:07.840 of signatures? Do you go door to door? Do you 0:22:07.880 --> 0:22:10.520 go to supermarkets? Where do you get all these people 0:22:10.560 --> 0:22:13.680 to sign I think it's just online problem. Oh it is. Yeah, Yeah, 0:22:13.680 --> 0:22:16.760 I don't know if they've taken to the streets. Yeah, 0:22:16.840 --> 0:22:19.520 but they might be all right. We'll take a break. 0:22:20.640 --> 0:22:23.040 More phone calls coming up, Pad forty. We'll talk the 0:22:23.800 --> 0:22:27.600 possibility of spring football, certainly for the IVY League.
